...students just learning to read to Masters' students trying to perfect their theses. I am interested in a broad variety of topics (I completed two majors and two minors in college), and I am great at explaining complicated concepts in ways that are easy to understand. I also know a lot of great test-taking strategies, so I'd be happy to help you work towards increasing your SAT or GRE test score. I greatly look forward...

...him or herself with just a small nudge in the right direction. Too often students become reliant on a tutor for the answers, and it is important that the student really learns how to think so that he or she can become a critically thinking, self-sufficient individual in the future. Because students are often being tutored in a subject they find more difficult than others, I have found that positive reinforcement and acknowledging improvement is...

...of experience teaching math and the physical sciences. I have a lot of experience teaching at all levels from elementary school through high school. Before I begin teaching, I like to find out what my student already knows and how he or she learns best. Then I can find the best way to teach. My goal is that my students enjoy learning, build confidence, and learn a lot. Although I believe it is important to...

I had a great time in my Anatomy class at UCLA and look forward to passing on the tricks I learned in school to my own students. Through my experiences as a tutor, I have developed a guiding style of teaching that allows students to form their own methods of learning. By allowing students to process information in their...

...and experiences have since translated into a burgeoning pedagogical career, starting in my undergraduate years at UM. I worked with a number of students on a wide variety of topics and writings, such as medical school applications, expository and persuasive essays, business writing, and even helped someone compose a letter to the Financial Aid Department. These are the experiences and background I bring to the table every time I meet with students.

Certain subjects, especially science, may not ‘be your thing’ and that is just fine. It is my job as the teacher to impart that passion for the subject by showing you the ins and outs of the subject, as well as the tricks that will lead to your success. In my...
